LPAs were greeted at the door by Caregiver Marbella Matos, and was granted access into the facility. Also participating on this Case Management-Other inspection is Assistant Fire Marshall, Kemplen Robbins from City of Santa Rosa Fire Department and Senior Code Enforcement Officer, Cassidy Anderson from the City of Santa Rosa.

LPAs, Assistant Fire Marshall and Senior Code Enforcement Officer toured the facility.

The following deficiencies were observed (See LIC 809D) and cited from the California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6 of California Regulation. Civil Penalty assessed in the amount of $500.00 (See LIC 421M dated for August 21, 2023) Failure to correct the deficiency and/or repeat deficiencies within a 12 month period may result in additional civil penalties. Exit interview conducted with the Administrator and appeal rights provided.
